Sad Old Humpty Dumpty

They tried to put him back together

After his untimely fall.

All the vast resources of

The kingdom were employed.

But every effort, bold and noble,

All that medicine could muster

Could not bring him to the state

Of happiness he once enjoyed.

He was such a jolly elf,

Rollie-pollie out to play.

Filled with tireless energy,

Bounding through the fields all day.

He was merely resting when

He climbed that fateful wall.

Never saw it coming

When succumbing to his fall.

And even though he did survive

With help from horse and men,

Sad old Humpty Dumpty

Was never the same again.
